Jesus christ, are you completely brainwashed? HE ADMITTED TO BEING ADDICTED TO DRUGS. DO YOU THINK THEY DROPPED OUT OF THE SKY AND PUT THEMSELVES IN HIS BLOODSTREAM? CONVICTED OR NOT, HE COMMITTED SEVERAL FELONY-LEVEL CRIMES. READ HIS STATEMENT IN THE ORIGINAL POST ON THIS THREAD.

I did read the thread and this is what i came up with.
Quote:
I am addicted to prescription pain medication.

He said he was addicted. He said it was a prescription. There is nothing illegal about taking a prescription pill. He didn't say that he got them illegally, he didn't admit to stealing them, he didn't admit to anything illegal. Yes, chances are that the maid's testimony is somewhat correct. I dont believe the amounts she quotes, but i do believe he did obtain some illegally. Nevertheless, you are not the jury. You have not heard the facts. You are convicting him based on your opinion, and claiming that he said it. NOWHERE in that speach did he admit to anything illegal. you infer and assume a lot that is not there. he did not admit to being a criminal...

Why not? those who persecute and prosecute him should not be asked to back up their beliefs and reasons? Why should someone be asked to explain the defense of rush, without his acusers (sp?) being required to do teh same?

what he did should be treated as an illness rather than as a criminal violation

Do you really? You claim people in his situation should be healed and treated, not ciminally charged. This applies to every case EXCEPT that of rush. "especially for someone who whole heartedly has been fighting for criminal prosecution of such a sickness" Again, you believe one way, but quickly changes in the order of vengeance. You only back your beliefs when they work for you rather than against you? Under any other circumstances, you would call someone who changes their beliefs and principles for one person hypocritical. Gee, doesn't that sound like what you think Mr. Limbaugh is doing. Yet vaguely similar to your own position. You would call anyone who so easily changes their stance based on popular belief spinless, gutless, and hypocritical ... until it applies to yourself.
